Remembering while forgetting : the role of automorhism in City management in Warsaw - Malden, MA : Blackwell Publishers, mar./apr.2002
This article summarizes the results of a study of city management inWarsaw. Contrary to the common opinion, the difficulties in effective city management in Warsaw do not stem from its communist past, but from a veneered sedimentation of a rationalist-legalist frame of action. These problems are aggravated by a negative attitude toward imitation of foreign models. The article discusses possibilities for reframing that are created by automorphism, that is, an imitation of the city's invented tradition
